600-630 / 1000+ results research 0977 Pathogenic hallmarks of primary lymphocyte-mediated scarring alopecia revealed by single nuclear and spatial multiomics
Scarring alopecia involves increased immune cells and specific gene changes near damaged hair follicles.
research p63 expression in normal skin and usual cutaneous carcinomas
p63 may influence skin cancer development and cell differentiation.

Finasteride caused a rare skin rash in a man, which improved after stopping the medication.
research Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp due to EGFR inhibitors: A multicentric study by EADV task force of ‘Dermatology for Cancer Patients’
Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp can occur about 17 weeks after starting EGFR inhibitors, and early minocycline may help manage it.

research Bullous Lesions at Polyethylene Glycol Interferon-alpha-2a Inoculation Site in a Hepatitis C Virus-infected Subject
A patient developed a blister at the injection site after hepatitis C treatment.
research T-cell “induced-self” MHC class I/peptide complexes may enable “de novo” tolerance induction to neo-antigens occurring outside of the thymus
Hair follicles may help teach the immune system to tolerate new self-antigens, but this can sometimes cause hair loss.
research 270 A novel small compound HPH-15 antagonizes TGF-β/Smad signaling and ameliorates experimental skin fibrosis
HPH-15, a new compound, effectively reduces skin fibrosis in experiments without causing harm.
research 85 Primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma spans yet unrecognised subtypes including polyclonal reactions
research Porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus and porokeratotic eccrine and hair follicle nevus: Is nomenclature “porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus” more appropriate?
The term "Porokeratotic Adnexal Ostial Nevus" is suggested as a more appropriate name.
research Clinical Snippets
Glycerol may improve wound healing and prevent keloids, a device can measure itch intensity, male pattern baldness is highly heritable, and fumaric acid esters may work for psoriasis by causing cell death in T cells.
research Pigmented Rings With Central Clearing: A Dermoscopic Feature of Melasma
Pigmented rings with central clearing help diagnose melasma more accurately.
research Dermpath & Clinic: Telangiectasia macularis eruptiva perstans
Brodalumab is more effective than ustekinumab in treating psoriasis.
research Plain Language Summaries
Eczema patients have a lower skin lipid to protein ratio, older and longer-staying hospital patients are more likely to get pressure ulcers, hair loss in AGA is linked to muscle degeneration, vitamin D deficiency is common in alopecia areata and linked to its severity, standard liver tests don't effectively detect fibrosis in psoriasis patients on methotrexate, and bullous pemphigoid patients have a higher death risk but combination therapy may reduce it.
research ROS-scavenging microneedles loaded with Portulaca oleracea L.-derived exosomes for atopic dermatitis therapy
A new microneedle patch effectively treats atopic dermatitis by reducing skin stress and restoring immune balance.

Prevelex, a polyampholyte, can create a cell-repellent coating on microdevices, which can be useful in biomedical applications like hair follicle regeneration.
research 560 The molecular mechanism of PCE-DP, a novel brightening active ingredient
PCE-DP brightens skin and promotes hair growth by enhancing cell growth and reducing melanin uptake.
research Pigmented contact dermatitis due to therapeutic sensitizer as complication of contact immunotherapy in alopecia areata
Some patients with severe alopecia areata developed skin darkening from their treatment, which may indicate a less effective response to the therapy.

Bim and Puma proteins are found in developing mouse hair follicles and are involved in more than just cell death.
research 422 Human hair follicles express PD-L1, whose expression is down-regulated by EGFR and MEK inhibitors ex vivo. A potential mechanism for EGFR inhibitor induced sterile folliculitis
EGFR and MEK inhibitors reduce PD-L1 in hair follicles, possibly causing inflammation.
